Soft-cover edition of Go Fly A Kite Charlie Brown (Holt, Rhinehart and Winston, Inc, New York, 1960) signed by Charles Schulz on the front flyleaf. Schulz has inscribed the book in blue ink: "For Audrey with/every best wish/Charles M. Schulz." Below the inscription, also in blue ink, Schulz has added a hand-drawn illustration of Snoopy. Both the inscription and illustration are boldly rendered, grading "10." Original Peanuts drawings have always been highly coveted by collectors and this example, in one of his early Peanuts paperbacks, is especially pleasing. The book displays only modest handling wear and, considering its fragile nature, remains in Excellent condition overall. Full LOA from PSA/DNA. Reserve $300. Estimate (open).
